I used to think fixing my house meant buying new stuff.
But I’m realizing the bigger issue is that our home just… stopped functioning for the life we actually live now.
So before I let myself spiral into rugs, paint colors, Facebook Marketplace, and peel-and-stick tile, I’m attempting something far less exciting: reorganizing our chaotic house to actually work for us.
I wrote about more about it here: open.substack.com/pub/lisbug/p/the-house-stopped-working?r=1utopj&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true
00:00 hello I’m back
01:20 our house stopped functioning
04:02 motherhood and accumulating stuff
06:40 relearning hobbies and creativity
09:10 reorganizing the workout space
11:45 plants, growth, and letting things go
13:40 preparing my PPCM speech
16:15 realistic home organization chaos
20:40 motherhood overwhelm and survival mode
24:45 what I’ve been watching lately
27:10 avoiding the eye doctor

And if you’re new here — I’m Lisa. I make videos about motherhood, identity, internet culture, and whatever else I’m trying to figure out in real time.
